Hi guys, just a heads up, highlands are live now for January delivery on Tesla website. It looks like slight range increases, only RWD and LR for sale, slight price increases and slight styling redesigns inside and out. Nothing to compel me to swap over.

Model 3 Highland live now
- Thread starter Burnt Toast
- Start date
No indicator stalks? Surely they can't be serious?
- rear screen
- updated front interior with metal materials, new lighting and updated seats
- New higher resolution screen
- 9 speaker RWD audio system and 17 speaker LR system all new
- increased range with no change to battery and motor
- new headlights and rear lights
- new suspension
- new colours available
Overall it's a facelift but some decent changes which will result in current model values plummeting.
No Aus deliveries until Jan 2024.
And no Performance model (I suspect just for now).
Ventilated seats.
Ambient lighting.
More speakers, including (edit amp ) in RWDx and 2 subs in LR up
Rear controls screen
Wood grain is gone in the black leather.
New red and silver/grey colours (price increase for grey to $2300)

Yikes. Feel sorry for anyone who was hanging out for this :-/
"slight" price increase? it's near enough 10%.
I was hoping the supposed manufacturing cost efficiencies might have counteracted a bit of the currency movement at least leaving it the same price.
But yeah, no stalks. Looks like no parking sensors. I don't see them maintaining the sales lead with these changes.

Isn't that just like your other car?
You know, the SF90 Stradale that you hide in the back shed
Appears to be incorporated into the steering wheel at the sides near the scroll wheel??
The indicator controls are on the wheel, controlled by the left thumb.

It looks a lot less like a fish now. I would call that refish an improvement.

I had to Google that, which hopefully doesn't reflect on the sales volume Tesla is aiming forYou know, the SF90 Stradale that you hide in the back shed
Agreed, I much prefer the refreshed 3 - far less 'froggy'.

The no stalks thing is just a firm no from me, I was hoping they would come to their senses. With the opening up of the charge network further, I will consider another brand going forward. Obviously it will require another vehicle that meets my needs, but this is super disappointing. I am guessing the "buttons" are capacitive touch too, VW has said they are going back to tactile because of the back lash on their current products.
I know I am going to read about saving production costs, but if that were the case, you could save money by not installing useless crap like ambient lighting. Why cannot Tesla just listen to what people want, they are just so pig headed.

Pity it still has a steering wheel...
FSD will have matured when there is no steering wheel.....

The car looks very Chinese.
Oh I forgot. It is made in China.
Ambient light?!
What's it good for?

People need to be able to mess around in the car when FSD is activated......
